Teri
Lynn Hatcher is a Emmy-nominated & Golden Globe Award-winning American actress
& author. She gained attention for her role as Lois Lane in the television
series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman co-starring with Dean
Cain. Hatcher is also well-known for portraying Susan Mayer, in Desperate Housewives,
a charming accident-prone divorcee.
Hatcher was born to parents Owen
& Esther Hatcher in Palo Alto, California. Her father is an electrical engineer
& her mother is a computer scientist. An only child, she attended Mango Junior
High (now Sunnyvale Middle School), Fremont High School in Sunnyvale & De
Anza College in Cupertino.
In March 2006, Hatcher revealed to Vanity Fair that she was sexually abused from the age of 5 by Richard Hayes Stone, an uncle by marriage who was later divorced by Hatcher's aunt. Her parents, she said, were unaware of the abuse at the time. In 2002, she assisted Santa Clara County prosecutors in indicting Stone for a more recent molestation that led his female victim to commit suicide at the age of 14. Stone pleaded guilty to four counts of molestation & was sentenced to 14 years in prison. In an interview appearing in Vanity Fair, Hatcher said she told the prosecutors about her own abuse because she was haunted by thoughts of the 14-year-old girl who shot herself, & feared Stone might escape conviction.
Hatcher began her performing career as a young
girl taking ballet lessons at the San Juan Girls' Ballet Studio in downtown Los
Altos, California. She later studied acting at the American Conservatory Theater.
One of her early jobs (in 1984) was as a cheerleader with the San Francisco 49ers.
During this time she also appeared as one of the mermaids on the show The Love
Boat in its final season.

most noted for playing Lois Lane in the TV series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures
of Superman (1993-1997), Hatcher has also appeared in such feature films as Spy
Kids (2001), the 1997 James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies, Dead in the Water (1991),
2 Days in the Valley (1996), & Heaven's Prisoners (1996). ABC had cancelled
Lois & Clark in 1997, & Hatcher was very disappointed about the show's
demise. She was also desperate in looking for work. She has also made a guest
appearance in Star Trek: The Next Generation & had a recurring role on MacGyver
as Penny Parker, a naïve, high-strung, young woman who always seemed to get
into trouble.
She also had a guest appearance in an episode of Seinfeld, in which her character, Sidra, broke up with Jerry because she found out Jerry was trying to have Elaine surreptitiously determine whether Sidra had breast implants. In one of the more memorable lines in the show, she declared, "Oh, & by the way: they're real, & they're spectacular." They looked very big.
Hatcher has also appeared in a series of popular Radio Shack television commercials alongside NFL Hall of Famer Howie Long. The pair remain close friends, & together have bought farm land on the outside of Los Angeles, with the intent of eventually raising endangered species. Hatcher said her plan to do so came about after reading an article featuring the world's top 25 endangered species.

In 2005, Hatcher also won the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) award in the same category. In July 2005, she was nominated for an Emmy Award as Best Actress in a Comedy Series for the same role, along with co-stars Marcia Cross & Felicity Huffman, who won the award.
As of April 2006, Hatcher is one of the highest paid television actresses in the United States. She reportedly earns $380,000 per episode of Desperate Housewives. In May 2006, she released her first book, Burnt Toast: & Other Philosophies of Life. In conjunction with the book, she has also launched a line of apparel & merchandise. Furthermore she is prominently featured in an international campaign for Repeat Cashmere.

& 1988, she had a relationship with her MacGyver costar Richard Dean Anderson.
